Freebies

Free bottle of fabric softener

Free hot dogs

These are really great freebies if they actually arrive. The hot dog one looks really similar to one that I filled out for Kraft last year and I got the free coupon when they said I would, so that's cool. I have never heard of Strawberry Susan, but if she sends me a bottle of Downy, she's my new BFF! I know you guys are planning on doing some camping, so I hope the hot dog coup gets there in time for you to use. Dan was buring some yard waste on Saturday, so I ran to the store and got us marshmellows and bratwurst and we took advantage of our "campfire." It was really fun.

Talk to you later,

Last day of Albertson's sale

Go to coupons.com and get all of the great Kraft coupons. Between the coupons in the paper and the kraft coupons I spent just under $9.00. I got 4 bottles of BBQ sauce, 2 boxes Kraft suddenly salad, 3 sqeazable mayo's, 2 boxes of Ritz crackers, 4 bottles of Suave, and a 2 lb brick of cheese I got all of that at Albies. At Wal-Mart (because I knew the prices were a lot better) I got 6 packages of hot dogs, 4 bottles of kraft dressing and 2 suckers for my kids. I got everything at both stores for about $8.50. Just remember to get what you use. Most of this stuff I am saving for this summer because we are going camping a lot.

For every $10 (before coupons) you spend at Albertson's on Kraft products you get $3.00 off automatically and another $2.00 off your next shopping trip. So split your orders into $10 increments and pay for them one at a time to maximize your savings!! Sorry this is such late notice, I just found out yesterday.

Food storage for $7.00 a week

Last night for Family Home Evening, my husband and I gave a lesson on food storage. I talked about budgeting food storage into you weekly grocery bill. Here is a list that is a really useful guideline. If you want more (and much better info) go to www.providentliving.org

Food Storage for $7.00 a Week

(The original copy of this says $5.00 a week, but most of these items can not be bought with $5.00)

Some weeks you will have leftover change, save the change each week in a kitty to be used for the weeks you may exceed $7.00

Week 1

6 lbs. Salt

Week 27

10 lbs of Powdered Milk

Week 2

5 cans of chicken soup

Week 28

20 lbs. sugar

Week 3

20 lbs of sugar

Week 29

5 lbs of Peanut Butter

Week 4

8 cans of tomato soup

Week 30

50 lbs. of Wheat

Week 5

50 lbs of wheat

Week 31

7 boxes of Macaroni & Cheese

Week 6

Week 8

Week 35

50 lbs. of Wheat

Week 10

Week 47

20 lbs. sugar

Week 22

YOU WILL END UP WITH:


500 lbs of wheat 15 can of cream of chicken soup

180 lbs of sugar 24 cans of tuna

40 lbs of powdered milk 21 boxes of macaroni & cheese

12 lbs of honey 500 aspirin

5 lbs of peanut butter 1000 multi-vitamins

45 cans of tomato soup 6 lbs of shortening

15 cans of cream of mushroom soup 12 lbs macaroni

12 lbs salt 6 lbs yeast


This should be enough to sustain two people for one year. For every two people in you family, add $5.00 and double or triple the amount of the item you are buying that week. This is just a guide – if you do not use some of these items replace them with items you would use.
